Verizon sucks because they try to take advantage of us, but there are people smarter than that and we will work together. I got my omnia today. It is a good phone. Unlike the HTC Pro that Verizon Raped.

i have flashed my Verizon i910 with the new beta ROM and works great! Use google Maps and love my Omnia even more, especially with Spb Mobile Shell3 installed as my new UI!!! Going to Flash my Omnia later with the new Cooked ROM WM6.5!!!

After turning on the gps and then starting google maps, you simply have to wait a few minutes for the first GPS lock...

My post in error, previously may have been because I was trying to connect from the basement of my apartment building while doing laundry, tooo much concrete, go outside and it'll work much faster / better.

GPS now working with Omnia i910. The official link is available on the VerizonWireless web site to install the update which unblocks the GPS Block that was there and enables i910 GPS for use with Third Party software; Google Maps, etc. The update will also install other stuff which is a plus. This is a DIY Update.Working fine with my unit.I do find it takes a few minutes for the initial Sat lock but after that, no problems. Works in my home; outside better. I see as many as 7 Sat locks (mostly 5 Sats) which was a surprise.

What is with texting after the update... after receiving a text, looking at it and closing the message. I still show a new text, so i have to reopen the conversation. Then the same text is highlighted in blue, how do I clear the notification the first time? Thanks

Yes, I seem to find something different with this as well but not sure.

To me, the Blue Highlight indicates this is the latest incoming reply to which I have NOT replied to. If I select Reply and do so, the Blue Highlight is no longer present.

In addition, I am not sure but it seems that I may have to open the Text Msg twice (without replying) in order to eliminate the indication of an unread message. Not sure if this is "Twice" or just "Once".

Again, all of this is not clear to me and I will watch and see what the pattern is for Text Msging.

Lets say when you receive a new text, you go in to read it and then you reply to that text and stay in that conversation. When they send another text to you (you still being in the same 'conversation'), you are still technically seeing the first new text. So if you and this other person are texting away and for example they send you a total of 10 more text messages, and you never closed out of that conversation after having opened the first new text...then you will still have 10 new text meesages. You would have to go in and back out of the same conversation 10x before it shows no more new messages.
